GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND OTHER ENTITIES 

 

This chapter contains a description of the ways in which information collected through 



the Registration Programs is disseminated and a description of how various agencies and entities 

cooperate to carry out the purposes of these programs. 

 

County and Statewide Registries; Public Records 

 

County Registries (G.S. § 14-208.10) 



A county registry includes all information compiled by the sheriff of a county in 

compliance with Article 27A, with the exception of information collected pursuant to Part 4 

(delinquent juveniles). 

 

The following information in a county registry regarding a person required to register is 



public record and shall be available for public inspection: name, sex, address, physical 

description, picture, conviction date, offense for which registration was required, the sentence 

imposed as a result of the conviction, and registration status. The sheriff shall release any other 

relevant information necessary to protect the public concerning a specific person, but shall not 

release the identity of the victim of the offense requiring registration. Any information obtained 

pursuant to G.S. § 14-208.22 regarding an offender’s medical records or documentation of 

treatment for the offender’s mental abnormality or personality disorder shall not be a part of the 

public record. 

 

Statewide Registry (G.S. § 14-208.14, G.S. § 14-208.15)

another state; or 

(c) 

Received from a federal law enforcement agency or penal institution. 



The statewide registry does not include any information collected pursuant to Part 4 (delinquent 

juveniles).

county registries (see above), including any relevant information necessary to protect the public 

concerning a specific person, except for the identity of the victim of an offense requiring 

registration.
